Bougle Reel

Hardy Bougle Heritage reel.  The latest version of the Bougle, launched for the reel's 110th birthday in 2013, this Bougle is one of the best yet - with its rolling pillar; reversible click check; naval brass bush and spindle; and its hand polished, deep anodised ‘pearl silver' finish. This Bougle reel is sure to become one of the classics. Made by time served Hardy Bros. reel makers in Alnwick, England, this Bougle reel comes presented in a beautiful, UK made, soft leather, sheepskin lined reel case.  Stocked in three sizes, the "Baby" Bougle is a 2 13/16" diameter (2 7/16" spool) for a 1/2 wt. line and holds a DT 2 line and 25 yards of backing and weighs 3.2 oz., the 3" diameter (2 3/4" spool) for a 2/3 wt. line and holds a DT 3 line and 35 yards of backing and weighs 3.6 oz., and the 3 1/4" diameter (2 7/8" spool) for a 4/5 wt. line and holds a DT 5 line and 25 yards of backing and weighs 4.1 oz..
